8 Questions About Our Servant Leadership

Those who know me know I’m a huge fan of Socrates, and specifically the Socratic method. I think much learning and growth can happen within the context of (1) asking questions of ourselves and others, (2) thinking through questions and their underlying assumptions, and (3) searching for honest answers to those questions.

So with that in mind, here are some I’ve been thinking through for myself. Perhaps they’ll be helpful to you as well.

1. Do I actually, truly listen to others in such a way that I’m serving them throughout our interactions?

2. Do I not only understand the thoughts and feelings of others, but also genuinely care more about their thoughts and feelings than I do my own?

3. Do I actively foster the mental and emotional health and wellbeing of those around me?
